Description
- This application is a continuation-in-part of International Application No. PCT/CN03/00489, filed Jun. 25, 2003, which claims priority to Chinese Patent Application CN20020112242 filed Jun. 27, 2002; CN20020146905 filed Oct. 24, 2002; CN20020155138 filed Dec. 17, 2002; CN20030115596 filed Feb. 28, 2003; CN20030116063 filed Mar. 28, 2003; CN20030128906 filed May 25, 2003.
- The inventions described below relate the field of medical devices, and provides a new drug-eluting stent that includes multi-layer coatings.
- Since Sigwart implanted the first stent in a coronary artery in 1986, stents have developed into the primary treatment for occlusive blood vessel disease. Now, eighty percent of atherosclerotic lesions are treated with stent placement.
- Percutaneous Transluminal Coronary Angioplasty (PTCA), in which a balloon is used to open obstructed arteries, has been widely used to treat atherosclerotic lesions. However, this technique is limited by the vexing problems of re-occlusion and restenosis. Restenosis results from the excessive proliferation of smooth muscle cell (SMC), and the rate of restenosis is above 20%. Thus about one in five patients treated with PTCA must be treated again within several months.
- In our Chinese patent application 02112242.3, we have disclosed an intravascular stent with active therapeutic agents to prevent restenosis and reduce the need for subsequent re-treatment after PTCA.
- This invention is based on Chinese patent application 02112242.3, and is intended to provided anti-stenotic stent coatings which are more uniform, more securely adherent to stent, more resistant to cracking and flaking, and, thus, to prevent multiple complications after stenting. The drug eluting stent comprises a stent coated with a primer, one or more drug-eluting layers, and a barrier layer. Therapeutic compounds such as immunosuppressants are dispersed in a polymer matrix that is applied to the stent, over the primer, and a barrier layer comprising parylene or other suitable polymer.
-
FIG. 1 shows the sustained release effect of parylene coatings of different molecular weight. -
FIG. 2 shows the release rate of drugs using parylene coatings of different thickness. -
FIG. 3 shows the result of in-vitro dilation without base coating. -
FIG. 4 shows the result of in-vitro dilation with base coating. - The new stent is composed of metal stent and a coating on the stent surface. The stent provides an expandable substrate adapted for implantation in vessel of a human body, for a multi-layer coating that includes a drug eluting layer, a primer layer, and a barrier coating applied as a topcoat. The coating has 1, 2, 3 or 4 layers, with one or more layers containing a drug or therapeutic compound. The drug eluting layer comprises a therapeutic compound (for example an immunosuppressant compound) which is dispersed within a polymeric matrix. The drug-layer contains 0.5-99% polymer, 0-10% additive and 0.5-99% active materials.
- To enhance the adhesion of the drug-layer to the metal stent, a primer or base coating is applied to the stent. The base coating may be composed of one or several kinds of polymer, including polyvinyl alcohol or polybutylmethacrylate (PBMA).
- On the surface of the drug-layer, there may be an additional surface layer, containing 0.5-99% polymer, 0-10% additive and 0-99% active materials.
- A rapid release of therapeutic agents from a drug-eluting stent may delay the biological process of endothelialization. To avoid this phenomenon, this stent may include a compact barrier coating. Material of this coating may be parylene and its derivatives, PTFE, etc. Parylene is a highly pure, chemically inert coating material. It is highly biocompatible. The US FDA has approved the use of parylene in human implants. Parylene coatings can enhance biocompatibility and surface smoothness of medical instruments. In order to improve the haemo-compatibility, some anti-platelet agents (Cilostazol, Plavix, Ticlid and etc) may be added to the compact coating, which thickness change from 0.01-20 microns.
- The active agents of surface layer and drug layer may be the same or different than the active agents in the main coating. And the surface layer can carry a litter drug or blank. As a release barrier, it can adjust the release rate to meet the particular needs of particular applications, and prevent acute or sub-acute thrombus.
- The thickness of the entire coating, as contemplated for this invention, is 0.1 to 100 microns.
- The active agents (therapy drug or gene) in the stent coating maybe chosen from the following: immunosuppressant compounds, anti-thrombogenic agents, anti-cancer agents, hormones, and other anti-stenosis drugs. Suitable immunosuppressants include ciclosporinA (CsA), FK506, DSG(15-deoxyspergualin, 15-dos), MMF, rapamycin and its derivatives, CCI-779, FR 900520, FR 900523, NK86-1086, daclizumab, depsidomycin, kanglemycin-C, spergualin, prodigiosin25-c, cammunomicin, demethomycin, tetranactln, tranilast, stevastelins, myriocin, gllooxin, FR 651814, SDZ214-104, bredinin, WS9482, and steroid. Suitable anti-thrombogenic drugs include heparin, aspirin, hirudin and etc., GPIIb/IIIa receptor inhibitor as tirofiban, eptifibatide, cilostazol, plavix, Ticlid and etc. Suitable anti-cancer agents include methotrexate, purine, pyridine, and botanical (e.g. paclitaxel, colchicines and triptolide), epothilone, antibiotics, and antibody. Suitable additional anti-stenosis agents include batimastat, NO donor, 2-chlorodeoxyadenosine, 2-deoxycoformycin, FTY720, Myfortic, ISA (TX) 247, AGI-1096, OKT3, Medimmune, ATG, Zenapax, Simulect, DAB486-IL-2, Anti-ICAM-l, Thymoglobulin, Everolimus, Neoral, Azathipprine (AZA), Cyclophosphamide, Methotrexate, Brequinar Sodium, Leflunomide, Mizoribine; Gene therapy formulations including: Keratin 8, VEGF, and EGF, PTEN, Pro-UK, NOS, or C-myc may also be used.
- The methods of preventing restenosis includes inhibiting VSMC hyperplasia or migration, promoting endothelial cell growth, or inhibiting cell matrix proliferation with the delivery of suitable compounds from the drug-eluting layers.

- Suitable additives to the polymer coating include cross-linking agents, dispersants (wetting agents) and plasticizers.
- The function of the cross linking agents is to provide structural integrity to the coating, and cross-linking agents such as acylamine, amidoformate may be used. The function of the dispersants (wetting agents) is to enhance dispersion of the polymer, to make the distribution of components of the solution more uniform, and ionic or non-ionic surfactants are suitable.

- The polymers, active components, and additives may be dispersed by stirring or ultrasonic emulsification. Thereafter, the coating may be applied to the stent by dipping, spray coating, or a combination of both. The coatings may be cured by heat or radiation.
- The coating method of the present invention may be used for making stents intended for use in treatment of coronary vessels and cerebral and peripheral vessel obstructions. The stents may be balloon expandable stents or self-expanding stents of the type currently used in the treatment of coronary arteries, cerebral arteries, carotid arteries, pulmonary arteries, kidney arteries, and other vessel obstructions.
- The coatings are uniformly deposited on the stent surface, without breakage. The coatings remain in there original condition in blood at 37° C. as well as after dilation. As seen in the comparison of
FIG. 3 , which is a stent coated with a drug eluting compound without first applying a primer to the stent, withFIG. 4 , which is a stent made according to the procedures described above. The drug eluting coating of the unprimed stent ofFIG. 3 exhibits cracking and flaking of the coating, while the drug eluting coating of the primed stent ofFIG. 4 remains intact after dilation. The active components are able to avoid complication and have the ability to treat local pathological changes and lesions. - The following examples illustrate the application of the inventions described above to various embodiments of drug-eluting stents.
- Application of the Primer (Base Coating) of the Stent:
- 0.5 g copolymer of ethylene and vinyl alcohol is put into 10 ml N, N-dimethylacetamide. The mixture is dispersed at 80° C. and then sprayed onto stents. Thereafter the stents are dried in a vacuum oven for 2 hours at 120° C.
- Barrier Layer-Preparation of Parylene Coating:
- The present invention provides parylene and its derivatives as release control materials. Parylene is prepared by vacuum vapor deposition of 1,4-dimethylbenzene. First, 1-4-dimethylbenzene is heated to 950° C. to form dimethylbenzene dimer which cracks into monomer vapor at 680° C. later. Then steel stents are put in a deposition chamber at room temperature. Monomer vapor is introduced in the deposition chamber to form compact polymer coatings on the surface of stents. The molecular weight of polymer is estimated at 500,000.
- Preparation of Barrier Layer Which has an Antiplatelet-Aggregation Function.
- The decomposition process for obtaining the parylene monomer is as same as example 2. While the monomer steam is introduced into the substrate deposition chamber, the platelet antagonist grains (such as Cilostazol, Ticlid, Plavix and so on) are introduced into the deposition chamber. As a result, an even, compact, controllable release layer with antiplatelet aggregation function can be formed on the surface of the substrate.
- 0.2 g poly (buthyl methacrylate) is put into 10 ml mixed solvent (N, N-dimethylacetamide/ethyl acetate=1:4), and is dispersed (or dissolved) at room temperature. 0.2 g Rapamycin is then added to the solution and dispersed at room temperature. Then the mixture is sprayed onto the surface of the stents, which have been prepared as described in EXAMPLE 1. Thereafter the stents are solidified in a vacuum oven for 2 hours at 40° C. Then the controllable release layer with the thickness of 0.2 microns is prepared as described in EXAMPLE 2.
- 0.1 g ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer and 0.2 g poly (buthyl methacrylate) are added in 10 ml iso-propylalcohol and dispersed (or dissolved) at room temperature. Then 0.2 g colchicine is put into the solution and dispersed at room temperature. Then the mixture is sprayed onto the surface of the stents, which have been prepared as described in EXAMPLE 1. Thereafter the stents are solidified in a vacuum oven for 2 hours at 80° C. Then the controllable release layer with the thickness of 0.5 microns is prepared as described in EXAMPLE 3.
- 0.3 g lactide-ε-caprolactone copolymer is put into 5 ml chloroform and dispersed (or dissolved) at room temperature. Then 0.1 g actinomycin is added to the solution and dispersed at room temperature. Then the stents is immersed in the solution for 1 to 30 min, and are solidified in a vacuum oven for 2 hours at 60° C. Thereafter the controllable release layer with the thickness of 0.05 microns is prepared as described in EXAMPLE 3.
- One part polyactic acid and one part polycaprolactone are dissolved in 100 parts chloroform. Then one-part micro molecule drugs (such as Cilostazol) as well as one-part macromolecule drugs (such as Rapamycin) are dispersed at room temperature. Then the mixture is sprayed onto the surface of the stents, and the stents are dried in a vacuum oven at 30° C. The parylene-coated layer is prepared as described in EXAMPLE 2. The release effect of the parylene-coated layer on the different molecular weight drugs is shown as
FIG. 1 . It shows that the different molecular weight drugs will have different release rate. While the molecular weight is larger, the release rate will be slower. And the increase of the coating layer's thickness will result in the slowdown of the release rate. - One part poly (buthyl methacrylate) and one part ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer are dissolved in 100 parts tetrahydrofuran. Then one-part micro molecule drugs (such as 10-camptothecin) are dispersed at room temperature. Then the mixture is sprayed onto the surface of the stents that have been prepared as described in EXAMPLE 1. And the stents are dried in a vacuum oven at 30° C. Thereafter the parylene-coated layer is prepared as described in EXAMPLE 2. The release effect of the parylene-coated layer with the different coating thickness (such as 0.05 microns, 0.1 microns, 0.2 microns, 0.4 microns and 0.5 microns) on the micro molecular drugs is shown as
FIG. 2 . It shows that the parylene-coated layer can control the release rate of the micro molecule drugs. The thicker layer will result in the slower release rate. So varying the thickness of the parylene-coated layer can vary the release rate. - Two part lactide-caprolactone copolymer is dissolved in 100 part chloroform. Then two part micro molecule drugs (such as FTY720) are dispersed at room temperature. Then the mixture is sprayed onto the surface of the stents that have been prepared as described in EXAMPLE 1 and the stents are dried in a vacuum oven at 30° C. Thereafter the parylene-coated layer is prepared as described in EXAMPLE 2. The result of the release studies in vitro shows that the release rate can be well controlled and the object of the long-term drug release can be achieved.
- Two parts poly (butyl methacrylate) is dissolved in 100 parts normal ethyl butyrate. Then one-part micro molecule drugs (such as Epo-D) are dispersed at room temperature. Then the mixture is sprayed onto the surface of the stents that have been prepared as described in EXAMPLE 1 and the stents are dried in a vacuum oven at 30° C. Thereafter the parylene-coated layer is prepared as described in EXAMPLE 2. The result shows that the parylene-coated layer can well control the release rate of the micro molecule drugs. The release time can be varied from 1 day to 90 day.
- Two part lactide-ε-caprolactone copolymer is dissolved in 100 part chloroform. Then two part micro molecule drugs (such as Triperygium Wilfordii) are put in the mixture. Then the mixture is sprayed onto the surface of the stents that have been prepared as described in EXAMPLE 1. And the stents are dried in a vacuum oven at 30° C. Thereafter the parylene-coated layer is prepared as described in EXAMPLE 2. The result of the release studies in vitro shows that the release rate can be well controlled and the object of the long-term drug release can be achieved.
- When the encephalic stents are implanted in some animal models that have glioma, they can restrain glioma effectively until it disappears.
